Dungy said Peyton Manning "would handle it OK, because you know it's coming."

"I would see him competing and playing as long as he wanted," Dungy said. "If it gets to the point to where, hey, he comes back and it looks like he's gonna play three or four more years, and you say -- we've got Andrew Luck, we've got an asset -- we trade (Peyton)."

Trade Manning?

Up until now, the mere idea of parting ways with No. 18 seemed impossible. But the Colts have wandered into strange lands, 0-6 for the first time since 1997, a disastrous season that netted Indy the top pick in the 1998 NFL Draft. They used that pick on Manning, and they shouldn't be afraid to pull the trigger again come April.
